Mission

Saffron Communities creates enriching creative experiences and projects that celebrate and span a variety of generations, cultures, and socioeconomic groups.  We draw from the themes of art and culture to deliver in-community and pop-up workshops, events and cultural initiatives.  Our mission is to inspire, educate and build connections among the people and communities we call home.

Vision

We work to bolster vibrant communities and stimulate positive social change. We aim to foster and support the communities we are part of, and to bridge social and economic divides.  We strive for outcomes that contribute to social connections, add to cultural pride, expand empathy and encourage creativity.

Values

We value human connection – because we’re here to share experience and support one another, whether locally or globally

We value community – because it anchors us and links us to people and place

We value design and creativity – because awakening the aesthetic and creative genius that reside in all of us is profoundly inspiring

We value individual experience and inclusion – because each of us has an amazing story, and because we’ve seen that when we have each other’s backs, we can take greater risks and achieve greater rewards

We value the quest for balance – between the frenzy that drives us and the self-care that renews and restores us

We value environmental preservation and stewardship – because this beautiful Earth is worth it

We value the joy that can be found every day – we manifest it in good work and positive relationships and we seek it in both the conspicuous and subtle realms
